screen-reader-text

Hi there,

It's an element visible to people using screen readers. It's an accessibility feature which allows them to navigate and use your website easier.

Hello,

Ok Tom, thank you so much for responding.

regards

No problem! :)

Hi

A doubt, how can i deactivate that line of code ?

Regards

If you really have to, you can do this:

remove_action( 'generate_before_header', 'generate_do_skip_to_content_link', 2 );

hello

I've added a snippet with the function and it doesn't remove the code. What other solution could there be ?

Regards

How did you add the code?

Hi Tom

with the Code Snippets plugin

Regards

Try this instead:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
    remove_action( 'generate_before_header', 'generate_do_skip_to_content_link', 2 );
}, 50 );

Let me know :)

Okay, perfect. It works.

Thanks !

No problem! :)

Hi Tom,

It seems that hiding text and links is a practice outside the Webmaster Quality Guidelines, as stated in the following URL: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66353?hl

This way, how can I also remove these codes from pages:

<li class="search-item" title="Pesquisar"><a href="#"><span class="screen-reader-text">Pesquisar</span></a></li>

<div class="mobile-bar-items">
<span class="search-item" title="Pesquisar">
<a href="#">
<span class="screen-reader-text">Pesquisar</span>
</a>
</span>
</div>

Thanks

When it comes to Google, you don't need to worry about the screen reader text: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-using-hidden-text-for-screen-readers-will-not-hurt-rankings/294605/

Ok Tom, thanks for the explanation.
